Ray Blue Quintet feat. Nat Adderley, Jr.

Downbeat called Ray Blue “a majestic presence,” adding “It’s one thing to be a great composer, it’s another to be a great performer. Ray Blue’s got the whole package.”

Possessing a fluid, lyrical style suffused with warmth and, above all, heart, this tenor saxophonist has been part of the New York scene and has toured internationally for years. His 2019 recording Work peaked at Number 7, and his new record #People is ready to drop.
